The Massa team will be the only one to read applications. All information and your identity will remain secret inside the massa team. However, external advisors may be hired to review your project. Then, you can highlight if you need some information to stay confidential.
The grant will be given in Massa token or with fiat. It could be both. For the other information about how you will receive the grant, just wait for the result! Grants will be paid out upon achieving mutually agreed-upon milestones (such as TVL, DAU's, feature-complete on Testnet, launch on mainnet with audit). Generally, prototyping a feature-full product must happen before even the first tranche of the award is paid.
Yes! any kind of project are welcomed to apply.
We don't have any threshold about grants. It will depend on the needs of the project. Nevertheless, your demand must be strongly coherent with the reality of your development.
No problem! You can apply as many times you want! Of course, you have absolutely no chance if you apply a second time not changing anything … But if you are not awarded through a first jury (you will know why), and you take into account the advice returned by the Jury, you will increase your chances to get awarded through the second round.
If we are not overloaded, you can expect to receive a response to your application within two weeks.
